Naval Supply Systems Command Fleet Logistics Center (NAVSUP FLC) Pearl Harbor provided critical logistics support to joint forces during exercises, ocean terminal operations, port visits, and routine operations to generate warfighting readiness Jan. 8 – Feb. 11.
NAVSUP FLC Pearl Harbor’s logisticians remained agile, relevant and ready as they simultaneously provided support to U.S. Navy, U.S. Army, U.S. Air Force, U.S. Marine Corps, Air National Guard and U.S. Coast Guard forces.
The team provided the U.S. Air Force and Air National Guard with ground transportation and fuel support during exercises Sentry Aloha, Pacific Raptor, and Albacore Sky Jan. 8 – Feb. 11. Twice daily, fuel deliveries were issued to F-22 Raptors, F-16 Fighting Falcons, F-35A Lightning IIs, KC-135 Stratotankers, and KC-10 Extenders. The exercises provides U.S. warfighters with the skill sets necessary to perform homeland defense and overseas combat missions.
Logisticians coordinated logistics support to USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN 72) during a port visit from Jan. 8-15. Support included on loading fresh fruits and vegetables, general stores, mail, depot level repairs and offloading hazardous waste.
